A Metal-Organic Framework derived Cux Oy Cz Catalyst for Electrochemical CO2 Reduction and Impact of Local pH Change.
Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English)(2021)
摘要
Developing highly efficient and selective electrocatalysts for the CO2 reduction reaction to produce value-added chemicals has been intensively pursued. We report a series of Cux Oy Cz nanostructured electrocatalysts derived from a Cu-based MOF as porous self-sacrificial template. Blending catalysts with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) on gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs) suppressed the competitive hydrogen evolution reaction. 25 to 50 wt % teflonized GDEs exhibited a Faradaic efficiency of ≈54 % for C2+ products at -80 mA cm-2 . The local OH- ions activity of PTFE-modified GDEs was assessed by means of closely positioning a Pt-nanoelectrode. A substantial increase in the OH- /H2 O activity ratio due to the locally generated OH- ions at increasing current densities was determined irrespective of the PTFE amount.
